Downregulation of Ahcy with and without blue light exposure significantly alters global gene expression in the Drosophila eye


ABSTRACT: One-carbon metabolism influences the response to oxidative stress through antioxidant biosynthesis and the transcriptional status of the cell via epigenetic mechanisms. One-carbon metabolism is responsible for the production of the universal methyl donor, S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), which generates the potent methyltransferase inhibitor, S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH). The essential metabolic enzyme, S-adenosylhomocysteinase (AHCY), functions within one-carbon metabolism and is the sole enzyme to catabolize the metabolite S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH). Under oxidative stress conditions, AHCY becomes oxidized at a critical residue for its activity correlating with increased SAH abundance in the Drosophila head. Here, we profiled the photoreceptor transcriptome at a single time point after 3-hour blue light exposure relative to untreated controls in the Drosophila eye. We used RNAi expressed in all cells of the eye under longGMR-Gal4 to knockdown Ahcy and examined photoreceptor cells enriched using nuclei-immunoenrichment. As a control, we expressed non-specific RNAi against mCherry.
